Diving and whale watching
by Kate-Me
The Busselton Jetty is also described as a fantastic dive site.
The staff in the souvenir shop/ticket office on the pier can give you more detail about what activites you can do there.
There's also a wreck, the Swan, which can be dived.
We were also told that whale watching is an excellent activity to do in Busselton, with a very high sighting success rate. (Need to checkr which months of the year this activity is possible)
Here's a view looking down into the clear blue water under the jetty.
Country Life Farm

This is a little farm especially for kids to enjoy. They can hand feed animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, goats, sheep, llama, alpacas, donkeys, ponies, cows or Clydesdale horses or just play in the giant bouncy castle, merry-go-round, inflatable slide or rowboats. There are tea / coffee and refreshments also available.

Dunsborough
by keeweechic
Busselton and Dunsborough lie on the shores of Geographe Bay which is protected from most of the prevailing winds that hit the coastline. There is more than 30kms of white sandy beaches which is bordered by natural bush and forests.
A great area for fishing, water sports, diving and snorkelling and swimming. If you go around this region be sure to check out Simmo's Ice Creamery & Fun Park. Buy an ice cream for free entry and really, that is just about the only reason you would go there unless you had little ones, that ice cream is to die for. You will see flavours here you never imagined and feel like you had died and gone to heaven. Worth the detour.
